This review includes looking for tickets in Trac, Portfile contributions, submitted patches, mailing posts and so on. After that, we still need to make the decision if we grant the commit access or not.

That certainly wins points for honesty and clarity (seriously), but it still leaves the poor guy hanging somewhat on the "what next?" question.   Is there some procedure for what happens when portmgr is unresponsive?  Can one of you make unilateral decisions on its behalf, or is a quorum required, or ... ?   These might be good questions to at least discuss amongst yourselves. :)
